An Experiment Study on Milling Forces in the Ultrasonic Milling of CFRP

Article Preview

Abstract:

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) have been used widely in airplanes, spaceships, automobiles and sport equipment, etc. But the machining is very difficult due to the rigidity of its internal reinforced-phase. In order to settle the difficult machining problem of CFRP, ultrasonic vibration is introduced to common cutting. Through the experiment of common milling and ultrasonic milling of CFRP, the influences of different parameters on milling force are studied. The experimental results shows that the milling forces of ultrasonic milling are significantly lower than common milling using the same milling parameters. The processing vibration of ultrasonic milling is lesser and the process is more stable than the common milling.
